2 Sydney Olympic Park Master Plan 2030 (2018 Review)

1.1 Sydney Olympic Park Sydney Olympic Park is a large and unique area covering 640

hectares, located just 14 kilometres west of Sydney’s central

business district. It was officially named as a suburb by the

NSW Geographic Names Board in 2009.

Sydney Olympic Park, in its evolution from the host venue for

the world’s largest event to a thriving economic Town Centre

and growing residential community in the heart of metropolitan

Sydney, is building on considerable strengths. These include its

outstanding sports and entertainment venues and the expansive

and diverse urban parklands, which offer riverside settings, picnic

areas and playgrounds, important heritage areas and protected

ecological habitats. The Park continues to build on its strong record

in environmental sustainability and access for people of all abilities,

both important legacies from the Sydney 2000 Olympic Games.

Today, over 20,000 residents, workers and students make up the

daily community and hundreds of organisations are located at

Sydney Olympic Park, which continues to attract major investment

in commercial, sporting, education and hospitality development.

Confidence in the precinct has been demonstrated by the significant

number of developments projects since 2000, valued at over

$2 billion of investment.

Sydney Olympic Park Master Plan 2030 (2018 Review) (hereafter referred

to as Master Plan 2030 (2018 Review) will guide Sydney Olympic Park’s

continued evolution.

Sydney Olympic Park provides an opportunity to establish a best

practice example of sustainable urban development as well as

remaining available for major sporting and entertainment events.

Master Plan 2030 (2018 Review) builds on the Park’s internationally

recognised initiatives in energy and water management, green

building design and sound economic and ecological management.

The Park’s sporting and recreational facilities and 430 hectares of

parklands ensure its unique place in offering a solution to Sydney’s

population growth. It provides opportunities for enhanced quality of

life and healthy lifestyle choices for the people of Sydney.

1.0 Introduction


1.2 Sydney Olympic Park Master Plan 2030 (2018 Review)

Master Plan 2030 (2018 Review) is a vision for the sustainable development of Sydney Olympic Park. It

builds on Sydney Olympic Park’s Vision 2025 as described in Section 2 and Sydney Olympic Park Master Plan

2002, and also complements the Greater Sydney Commission’s A Metropolis of Three Cities, which was

released in 2018.

Master Plan 2030 (2018 Review) is consistent with the aims and objectives of Sydney Regional

Environmental Plan No. 24 - Homebush Bay Area and establishes guidelines and controls for the future

development of Sydney Olympic Park.

An artist’s impression of Sydney Olympic Park Town Centre in 2030 is shown in Figure 1.2.

1.3 Purpose of this Master PlanMaster Plan 2030 (2018 Review) has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the Sydney

Olympic Park Authority Act 2001 and amendment number 20 to State Environmental Planning Policy SEPP

(State Significant Precincts) 2005.

Its purpose is to:

• provide a comprehensive approach to the development of Sydney Olympic Park

• ensure Sydney Olympic Park becomes an active and vibrant Town Centre within Metropolitan Sydney

• protect the role of Sydney Olympic Park as the premier destination for cultural, entertainment,

recreation and sporting events

• protect and enhance the public domain

• protect and enhance the Sydney Olympic Park parklands

• provide detailed planning and design principles and controls to encourage development that responds

to its context and contributes to the quality of the built environment and the future character and

cultural significance of the site.

SEPP (State Significant Precincts) 2005 requires that, except in certain circumstances, the consent

authority may only grant consent to development at Sydney Olympic Park if it has first considered this

Master Plan and that development is consistent with this Master Plan.

A development proposal that contains a variation to any provision in this Master Plan may still be

considered to be consistent with this Master Plan if the variation is justified in terms of the principles,

strategies and intent of this Master Plan.

Consistency with this Master Plan will be assessed on the following:

• the ability to demonstrate that the proposal will deliver a superior outcome, including exemplar

visitor experience, high quality urban amenity and a significant contribution to the Authority’s

delivery of major event objectives,

• the development proposal has been subject to the ‘design excellence’ process outlined in this

Master Plan, and

• that it achieves the overall vision, planning principles and key elements of the relevant precinct.
